      BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES
      DAVID GLENN

      "He was married to first cousin of John A. Macdonald.
      By trade, David Glenn was a weaver in Northern Ireland. He was married to Annie Macdonald, first cousin of Sir John A. Macdonald who became the first Prime Minister of Canada. The young couple courageously embarked on the ocean voyage with their two small children in 1820, which brought them to Hay Bay, where they remained for the next ten years.
      David earned his living as a weaver until he thought it wise to invest in land for his family's future. He moved to Ameliasburgh where he bought two hundred acres for four dollars an acre on the second Concession. David continued weaving, supplying most of the local populace between Carrying Place, Roblin's Mills and Mountain View with his services. David passed away in 1864, and his wife followed him in 1866."
